This short graphic novel is quite interesting. A young Englishman meets an odd old man on the street in L.A. The old man bum's a cigarette from the younger and to repay him tells a story. The story is one of the time before the Earth was created. Angels were assisting the creator (the Word) in forming the different aspects of our world. The angel Raquel was waiting until he was called to do what he was meant to do. It turns out he was meant to investigate the death of another angel and exact retribution against whoever caused it. The severity of retribution causes angels to question the Word's decision. The story ends with the young man returning to England where he learns of the mysterious deaths of two women and a child in L.A. Were those victims the same women the young man had visited the evening before?
